Can you provide a step-by-step process for what you do right after you take your scleral lenses out of your eyes? I just got mine and want to ensure that I care for them. Thank you so much!
Again…great stuff. I have my two-week follows up for new lens next week and one of the things I wanted to ask my doc was about drops for dryness during the day WITH lens in. I noticed Blink *specifically* says “for contacts”. Thanks for turning me on to this product.
As usual, great tips. I follow almost your whole routine. With using the pink vials, I add a drop of Ivizia or Refresh Celluvisc preservative-free drops to the solution for extra comfort. I also use Clear Care with HydraGlide every four days. I made the fatal mistake of accidentally getting some of it in my eye & it caused a corneal burn. It was not fun. Please make sure you let the contacts soak for the entire six hours
Thank you this video! I got given some solutions and drops with my lenses in and showed the door and this vid has helped me to understand what each thing is for. I got home and didn’t know where to start.
The question I have and hopefully someone can answer been always wondering this but after using a cleaning solution and leaving them over night do I rinse them after with saline solution or do I just put saline on the scleral and insert it.
Yes mine does get foggy after few hours, so before inserting saline I add 2 drops of celluvisc, or systane hydration drops, after that saline,it will help in reducing it for 8- 9 hours
Hey, brother! Great video. How is your night vision while wearing these? I have just started wearing these and my vision around lights are blurr even with the lenses on. I think they call it astigmatism. LOL. Keep up the good work! Thanks
I honestly forgot. I'm seeing the dr next week to see what changes occurred. I have thought about PRK, doing research still but want more time to pass to see how people react to it.
Hey, for red eyes I will opt for the blink solutions with the contacts on. With the contacts off I have an idea of a good one but I don't want to recommend it yet without asking my Dr since I don't get red eyes often. In terms of when to use I answered that in the video. For cloudy I prefer the blink Cleans and Conditions (the white one not the green).
Hello bro, I am from India I need your help I am moving canada next month can u tell me best solution and saline for my scleral lenses (Pureline is best ?)
Thanks for the video but I’m confused. The first product is disposable saline solution and the next product is saline solution ? Why can I not insert my contact with the second product if they’re both saline solution?
The first one is preservative free. You don't want the chemical preservatives trapped under the lens right next to your cornea all day, so the smaller preservative free ones exist. They won't last once they are opened because they have no preservatives, which is why they come in the small little vials.
My doctor told me in order to use clearcare I have to get a PROSE CASE because the case that comes with Clearcare is too small for scleral lens but I keep seeing everyone who the case it came with. I’m spending so much because of Keratoconus and these lenses I really don’t want to shell out for a pricey and bigger case/basket 😭😭😭
I seen you had Holcomb C-3R done with dr Brian .did you kc get stable ?im looking into going to him if I keep progressing.I’m using scleral lenses right now but I want to get stable
Nice where did you see I did Holcomb with Brain? And yes my eyes have been stable for years now. I'm more than glad I did the surgery. I just wish I did it much earlier.
The B+L is used more for cleaning and it’s not saline. The cleaning solutions are thick whereas the saline is more thin with sodium (like your own tears)
@@JacobGagoOfficial i mean on the beginning when you got them for the first time when you put them in you had to adjust the first few weeks because you feeled the edges ?
I can't use allergey drops because of the antihistamine so I dont know what works best but I know theres a drop called alaway they have a preservative free drop now I think the only one out there right now . just letting you know since preservatives in any drop over time can cause cell death in the eye
And for those of us with sensitive eyes, instead of the 0.9%saline, you can try the Pro-saline from a company called Silver line. Personally, the 0.9%saline burns my eyes
Why did i see a video of a doctor saying not to use hydraglyde clean & clear since it leaves a coat on the lens and also not to use if i have hydra peg lenses. I have no idea if my lenses are hydra peg smh. Idk why the doctor didnt go over this with me.
Tbh many Dr's go off what they think. Luckily for me I have 2 Dr.'s that actually care and study hard to learn what to do and not to do. I run every information by them and this has been my method. I haven't had a single problem in 5+ years. I think by now I can trust them.
dr. I'm from kerala india😭... I'm a keratoconus patient 🥺🥺🥺.... please help me😭😭😭😭😭......after c3r surgery i feel progressing vision blurring what can i do😭😭😭😭😭😭sirrrrrr please help 😭.....'d Can a person with keratoconus lose their eyesight again after doing C3R?
There is a possibility, but the chances are very small. Make sure to talk to you eye dr and have them compare the results before and after the c3r if there is progression. Hope this helps.
Sir I went to the doctor two days ago for checkup. C3R was done in both eyes. It's been six months since right eye and three months since left eye....... .... When I went there and got my eyes checked, they said that the vision is fine, but I feel that there is a lot of difference between the vision in the left eye and the vision in the right eye. ... My corrent vision is Right eye bcva 6/15 Left eye 6/6 ..... The vision of the right eye worsened. But there is concern that the left eye will be like the right eye. Because I'm a 21 year old boy...... .... I am worried that I will lose all my future. Very sad🥺 THANK YOU 🙏

You bet! Thanks for watching
Thanks dude for putting up great stuffs

My pleasure!
Hello, do these lens really work for dry eyes? And if they do they take away the burning sensation and irritation. Thank you!
I put mine in the clear care every night. Not sure if it’s bad for the hydra PEG coating
The question I have and hopefully someone can answer been always wondering this but after using a cleaning solution and leaving them over night do I rinse them after with saline solution or do I just put saline on the scleral and insert it.
This may sound like a dumb question, but I’m new to the sclera contact lenses. Do you use the blink eye drops while the contacts are in?
No dumb questions. But yes I do. It's made for our contacts.
Hello
Want to ask you if you tried the ultrasonic contact lenses cleaner??? And what is the best solution or cleaner for it??
I have not tired it. Working on a new video soon.
What do you think of purilens?
Hey I’m new in this scleral lender journey so I would wanna know did you ever get the foggy lenses like mid day ? And if so how did you fix it ?
Yes mine does get foggy after few hours, so before inserting saline I add 2 drops of celluvisc, or systane hydration drops, after that saline,it will help in reducing it for 8- 9 hours
How did you find a Clear Care kit that will fit the large Scleral contact lenses?
Hey, brother! Great video. How is your night vision while wearing these? I have just started wearing these and my vision around lights are blurr even with the lenses on. I think they call it astigmatism. LOL. Keep up the good work! Thanks
Yeah it's called astigmatism lol I would just say to get a proper fit but lights suck for us KC patients.
@@JacobGagoOfficial Is your night vision good?
Hi, what's Ur refraction at this time ? Did u consider having PRK procedure ?
I honestly forgot. I'm seeing the dr next week to see what changes occurred. I have thought about PRK, doing research still but want more time to pass to see how people react to it.
Thanks so much!! 😁
No problem!
Ily tx man
❤️
What’s a good insertion solution bro like where I can get at the pharmacy in case of an emergency.
Can you use Clare Care for a wetting? And can you use Blink for wetting? Thanks
Clear care is for cleaning only and blink is for wetting
After using scleral lenses does keratoconus get worse and does scleral has some power like -2 or -3.5
Re Zaditor: Do you remove your contact before using Zaditor drops.
Can you deep clean Hydra PEG ?
Does your lens make car headlights super bright when coming towards you?
No not at all, if you do get this it’ll need to be adjusted for your astigmatism
U rock
Appreciate you
I’d love to get an update (if you have any) for your current KC care.
Yes I'm working on it.
What about for red eyes?
Can we you know 🍃 with our contacts on?
Thank you 🙏 all your information was really helpful.
Also can you show us how to use the eye drops please for whenever we feel like we see cloudy or we think our eyes are dry. You’re awesome man
Wait also where can I get the plunger and remover replacements

Hi, thank you for your help and time i am new and i don't know how to clean the contact lenses case can you help please and thank you again
Yes going to make a short video on this soon. But until then you want to use the saline solution I mentioned in this video to clean the contact case.
Hello bro, I am from India I need your help I am moving canada next month can u tell me best solution and saline for my scleral lenses (Pureline is best ?)

They won't last once they are opened because they have no preservatives, which is why they come in the small little vials.
Can you use that saline solution to rinse off the Boston Simplus cleaning solution? And is the saline preservative free?
I talk about it at 1:21 - Saline Solution #2 (Water Replacement). The bottle I use isn't but they sell preservative free ones online.
My doctor told me in order to use clearcare I have to get a PROSE CASE because the case that comes with Clearcare is too small for scleral lens but I keep seeing everyone who the case it came with. I’m spending so much because of Keratoconus and these lenses I really don’t want to shell out for a pricey and bigger case/basket 😭😭😭
Can you use the saline solution to fill the contacts before insertion
If I understand you correctly. That’s what your supposed to do.
I seen you had Holcomb C-3R done with dr Brian .did you kc get stable ?im looking into going to him if I keep progressing.I’m using scleral lenses right now but I want to get stable
Nice where did you see I did Holcomb with Brain? And yes my eyes have been stable for years now. I'm more than glad I did the surgery. I just wish I did it much earlier.
@@JacobGagoOfficial look up Holcomb C3r you come out as a testimonial
@@JacobGagoOfficial ua-cam.com/video/NrYowDKaLss/v-deo.html
Which surgery you opted for ?
I have a question?
Can you use bausch + Lomb saline for insertion as well?
The B+L is used more for cleaning and it’s not saline. The cleaning solutions are thick whereas the saline is more thin with sodium (like your own tears)
At the beginning you used them did you feel the edges of the lens ?
What are you referring too when you say "used them"?
@@JacobGagoOfficial i mean on the beginning when you got them for the first time when you put them in you had to adjust the first few weeks because you feeled the edges ?
How many continuous hours do you wear your sclerals for per day? Thank you
till I’m done with my day. I don’t pay attention to how long to wear it.
@@JacobGagoOfficial do you ride bike with these lens on??
My eyes are sensitive when i watch tv and when i drive or go outside do i have to get used to the brightness
You might just have an astigmatism. They’re are corrective lenses to help with this.
I have had my contacts for about 7 months and the salotion seems to make the lens foggy do you have any suggestions ?
Yeah buy the green solution I mentioned in this video it should help with that.
@@JacobGagoOfficial green solution?
I have 4 years experience wearing scleral lense the best one and make comfort for your eyes and it last long 20 hours you can used BIOTRUE
Thanks for sharing. Maybe I can ask my Dr If I can use it.
you use biotrue for filling scleral lens??
@@Sureshkumar-mb1xf Yes
@@faisalyounus8906 can you share the product link
What about “Tangible Clean” ?? Any thoughts on that one?
Quite honestly I haven’t used their product. Have you?
I can't use allergey drops because of the antihistamine so I dont know what works best but I know theres a drop called alaway they have a preservative free drop now I think the only one out there right now . just letting you know since preservatives in any drop over time can cause cell death in the eye
I believe you're referring to the Zaditor correct?
@@JacobGagoOfficial yes sorry forgot to mention which one exactly
What solution do you put them in overnight on a daily basis. My brother uses aquaclear and it out so im looking for an alternative?
The Boston with the blue tip one. I mentioned it in the video.
And for those of us with sensitive eyes, instead of the 0.9%saline, you can try the Pro-saline from a company called Silver line. Personally, the 0.9%saline burns my eyes
where were you getting the 0.9% from?
Hi, I have the same problem. Where can I buy it? I can't find it online. I'm in USA... Thanks!

Does anyone use the cleaning solution two days in a row? Stuff is 20 bucks a bottle twice a month and I want to stretch it.
I’ve switched to only using the hydro solution for cleaning.
